Design You Can Feel

Written by Bernhardt | Aug 6, 2025

 


Texture is the soul of design—the element that invites touch, evokes emotion, and brings visual depth to form. Bernhardt embraces the artistry of contrast: soft against structured, matte beside luminous, wood grain juxtaposed with polished metal. In a living space, texture adds depth and character, making each room feel more intimate, layered and complete. Every surface is chosen with intention, every finish layered with nuance. Texture is more than a detail—it is the quiet language through which our pieces speak.

 

 

 

 

Soft and Sculpted

Bernhardt’s Cleo Fabric Swivel Chair invites the senses with sculptural curves and a richly textured, nubby upholstery that is soft to the touch and visually engaging. The generous seat is cradled by a sweeping back, while a smooth swivel base adds ease and movement to its refined silhouette. Paired with the Valora Credenza, the setting becomes a study in contrast—plush fabric beside cast aluminum doors that shimmer with intricate texture. Together they offer a layered expression of comfort, material and quiet luxury.

Form and Finish

Sculptural curves and contrasting surfaces bring a tactile richness to the room. Bernhardt’s Calder Sectional flows in a graceful crescent, its tightly upholstered seat velveteen soft to the touch, grounded by a seamless base that melts into the floor. The Clawson Cocktail Tables introduce visual and tactile depth, with gently pitted cast aluminum tops in a softly weathered Graphite finish—cool, raw and fluid in form. The result is a space that feels grounded and dynamic, where texture isn’t just seen but deeply felt.

Unexpected and Layered

With its deeply ribbed oak doors in a rustic Sutton finish, the Menton Buffet and Nightstand are a study in contrast—where texture becomes the defining element of design. Cast aluminum tab pulls in a rich Dark Graphite finish add sculptural detail, quietly modern against the organic wood grain. Inside, adjustable shelving and hidden drawers offer thoughtful utility, but it’s the surface—the unexpected layering of tactile materials—that makes this piece unmistakably Bernhardt. Refined, grounded, and artfully dimensional.

Natural and Refined


Bernhardt’s Monolith collection brings warmth and clarity to the dining space through texture and form. The table features a faux stone pillar base in a textured Millstone finish, supporting a smooth wood top in the rich Puma finish—natural elements in quiet contrast. The side chair adds sculptural presence, with a curved back that appears to float above its upholstered base. Together, they create a refined composition of shape and surface—grounded, tactile, and serene.

Pattern and Presence

Texture defines the Stratum Entertainment Credenza, where sculpted cast resin door fronts ripple with the organic movement of wind through wheat fields. A Fossil white faux stone finish wraps the top and sides in a smooth, grounded surface while twin steel base panels in Polished Nickel add a note of quiet shine. Behind four soft-close doors, adjustable and fixed shelves, a drawer and venting offer seamless function. With layered materials and intricate relief, this piece brings texture and elegance to any space.

Contrast and Craft

The Prado dining setting finds beauty in opposing forces—curved and linear, soft and sculptural, smooth and textured. The dining table rests on cast aluminum legs in a Bright Graphite finish, their shaped forms surrounding a wood top in rich Porcini. One leaf expands the table to an oval, extending both its presence and purpose. The sideboard echoes this interplay with curved wooden doors flanking textured cast aluminum fronts that shimmer softly in contrast. At the table the arm chair adds comfort with a fully upholstered seat and exposed legs in the same deep finish. Together they create a modern composition shaped by surface, weight and touch.

Weave and Warmth

The Wailea Outdoor Swivel Chair brings comfort and modern style with its soft-knit Nordic Gray weave wrapped around a sculptural frame. Beside it, the Millim Accent Table adds an organic touch in white natural stonecast with an hourglass silhouette. Together they offer a tactile balance of softness and strength—elevated, enduring and made for the outdoors.
